Our forecast stays warm through the weekend with mostly mid 70s in the forecast for highs. Those that end up seeing a bit more in the way of sunshine could see upper 70s, while those that stay locked in with more clouds may stay in the lower 70s.

Rain coverage will return as we head into the weekend, but we are not expecting a drought-busting, steady, all-day kind of rain. Many folks will be disappointed by the amount of rain they get Saturday - with some folks not getting any at all.

COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) - Rain and storms continue to push through the Chattahoochee Valley into the overnight hours. Embedded storms will provide plenty of lightning and thunder, and heavy rain will become more of a threat as we take you through the overnight hours.

Some patchy dense fog will be possible as we start off Monday morning - especially in places that picked up rain on Sunday. As you’re heading out to school and work, this will be something to keep an eye on - you can also track those foggy spots on our WTVM weather app!

Rain and storm chances look to stay in the 30-40% range as we head into Wednesday with hot and muggy weather for everyone, regardless as to whether you see a shower or storm
